Quick feet for a guy his size but kind of awkward and clumsy. Quality defender with insane reach, capable rebounder and shotblocker, absolutely no offensive game to speak of, no post moves, shooting range is about 3-3 1/2 feet away from the basket, incredibly raw, has shown a lot of improvement in a short amount of time but needs to be heavily coached up in every facet on offense as well as better footwork on defense.
